lyrics

I’m still undercover
Somewhere out west
Preventing disaster
You know the rest

And I’m getting nervous
Williams in command
Has set an explosive
I’ve got to get it disarmed

They know
There’s a leak, there’s a spy, there’s a mole, there’s a guy
Someone wants to defuse the bomb
But the thing will explode if I don’t have the code
They’re wondering, where has Williams gone?

I crunched the numbers
I did the maths
I plotted all the
possibilities on a graph

I knew it crucial
Devising a ploy
Reduce my chances
Of being destroyed

I know
It’s tricky to navigate and pointless to estimate,
the whole thing’s like a painting by Escher.
The atmosphere’s wonderful for staying uncomfortable,
I’m hoping that he’ll crack under pressure

I know the chair won’t hold you well
The spotlight is too bright
The muzzle of the shotgun
Is digging in your side
And although you’re protesting I cannot let you go
I’m sorry Mr Williams but I need the codes

They know that the mole’s still at large -
Fixin' industrial espionage.

I open the casing
I undo the screws
Cause if this thing goes up
It’ll get you too

You knew the sequence
So here’s the pliers
I’m gonna leave you to it,
Cut the wire

You know that
There’s seconds ticking down and my body hits the ground
You’re vaporised sitting in your chair
I’ve jumped out the winder and the building’s cinders
The fire missed my by a hair...
